A crucial meeting was held between the Defence Force and the Maharashtra government amid rising tensions between India and Pakistan. The meeting was held in Varsha, the official residence of Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis. The state government will coordinate closely with the Defense Forces, CM said.

The meeting discussed improved intelligence sharing, more technology use, necessary preventive measures, and expected cooperation between the state government and the Defense Forces, while establishing a faster coordination mechanism.

CM said it appreciates the strength and precision of the Indian army’s operations in Sindoor, and the efforts of the army are unprecedented. “I pay tribute to the Wehrmacht. Cities like Mumbai are very important. Mumbai is the financial capital of India. In previous attacks, the enemy tried to show that they were targeting the economic hub of the country. In the future, we must be fully capable. In this case, the exchange of intelligence is crucial. Everyone must be more alert to the efforts of cyber officials.

Deputy Chief Ministers Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar also participated in the meeting with the Defense Forces.
